This is the LG G7 ThinQ probably

Launch of LG G7 ThinQ is just around the corner, and, as we inch closer to the launch, more details about the smartphone leak online. Interestingly, this will be the first time that a dedicated Google Assistant button is included in any smartphone.

LG is about to announce its next flagship device in a week, named G7 ThinkQ.

You can also see the dual-lens camera on the rear, plus the fingerprint sensor. In the new images leaked by TechRadar, one of the boot logo of the LG G7 clearly shows the ThinQ branding on the screen. The scoop came from CNET, whose source claims to have insider information on the LG G7 production. LG has said that it will discuss those artificial intelligence features at its event in New York City on May 2.

If all that sounds familiar, it's because it follows a slew of rumors surrounding LG's G7 ThinQ.

Based on the leaked image, the smartphone is spotted in a grey color variant and features a notch with houses the front-facing camera as well as the proximity sensors along with edge-to-edge display. The original file is said to have been 5.3MB in size and originated from a device bearing the model number LM-G710 that's likely the global variant of the LG G7 ThinQ.

As well as its baked-in AI smarts and Assistant button, the LG G7 ThinkQ will be the latest Android phone to sport an iPhone X-style notch, following in the footsteps of Huawei's P20 and the upcoming OnePlus 6.

Those who aren't a fan of Assistant won't, however, have the option to reassign the button to toggle another application - following in Samsung's footsteps, which controversially prohibits customers from remapping the dedicated Bixby button.

The bottom, apart from housing the 3.5mm headphone jack also gets a USB Type-C port, a speaker grille, and antenna bands.

On the top of the device, there is the SIM card slot and the microSD card slot.

A second version of the device will also be made available that will offer 128GB storage and 6GB RAM.
